Marilyn Manson & Evan Rachel Wood broke off their engagement

Shock rocker Marilyn Manson and fiance Evan Rachel Wood affectionately roam around the set of HBO's Mildred Pierce in NYC, NY on May 28, 2010. The pair who recently announced their engagement are also slated to appear together in a horror movie titled, Slasher Sisters . Fame Pictures, Inc

I hope this is the last time, don’t you? People Magazine got confirmation that Marilyn Manson and Evan Rachel Wood have split for, like, the billionth time (I actually think it’s the third time, maybe?). They’ve been doing the on-and-off thing for so many years that I’m not even going to try to backtrack and trace all of the splits and reconciliations. Suffice to say that at one point last year, they were broken up, then Marilyn announced last December that they were back on, and there was even vague talk of an engagement back in January. People’s sources say there was an engagement too – and that it’s now over:

Talk about on-again, off-again: Marilyn Manson and actress Evan Rachel Wood ended their engagement last week, a source tells PEOPLE.

The newly single Manson, 41, then hit the town Saturday night, dining at L.A’s STK and clubbing at next door Boudoir with a group including a brunette named Twiggy and former Playmate of the Year Colleen Shannon.

“They just broke off their engagement, and he needed a night out with friends,” says another source.

While together, the shock rocker proposed to the True Blood actress, 22, during a January stage performance in Paris, according to reports.

The two began dating in 2006 but then broke up in 2008, when Wood was linked briefly to actor Shane West. They reconciled for a short time, only to split again before becoming engaged last January.

I want to think ERW pulled the plug this time, hopefully because she finally grew up and realized how uncool MM is and how she could do so much better. Because she can – and should. But maybe she should just be alone for a little while, because I get the feeling she’s pretty screwed up. That’s probably what attracted an a–hole like Marilyn Manson to her in the first place.

    MM and that brunette are hiiiiiiiiiiiigh as hell in those pics.

    I hope it was ERW that broke it off…she has a great future. Most young women date a loser for awhile. Let’s pray this phase of her life is OVER

  2. denise says:

    How anyone can date Marilyn is beyond me.

  3. SammyHammy says:

    “But maybe she should just be alone for a little while, because I get the feeling she’s pretty screwed up.”

    Definition of being screwed up: having any interest, especially of a romantic nature, in that freak show MM.

  4. RHONYC says:

    @ denise

    in dita’s case i blame it on the absinthe. 🙂

  5. denise says:

    @ RHONYC

    lol!

    He just scares me. I have the urge to throw holy water at him.
    🙂

  6. mslewis says:

    He needs her more than she needs him. Evan Rachel has a bright future in movies. She needs to get away and stay away from that freak.

  7. GatsbyGal says:

    FUCKING EWW.

    Manson, you’re 41. It’s time to grow the hell up, put away the lipstick, and quit being such a retard.

    @Denise – He shouldn’t scare you. He’s a loser highschool kid trapped in the pasty body of a man. He’s all bark and no bite. He’s pretty much a pitiful joke now.

  8. Amy says:

    @ RHONYC – No, just blame it on Dita’s stupidity. She may look good, but watch an interview with her and YIKES. Dumb as a stump.

    Didn’t ERW briefly date Alexander Skarsgard? Um, how could you go back to MM after hooking up with the Skars? I’d be moving to Sweden and sampling the rest of its fine offerings!

  9. gen says:

    Anyone who dates or has sex with Manson I totally lose any respect for. Not that these women care what I think :oP

  10. dread pirate cuervo says:

    Amy, I hope that’s not true. I like Evan Rachel & to forsake the ASkars for Marilyn Manson…girl, put your eyes in SEE! It’s Vampire Eric!!! If I was not so very much in love with my bf, I would hit that Swedish meatball on every piece of furniture in IKEA. Twice if he wears the fangs.

  11. Strawberry says:

    Pre-dictable.

  12. Praise St. Angie! says:

    “MM and that brunette are hiiiiiiiiiiiigh as hell in those pics.”

    yeah, first thought I had as well, when I saw the one with them “frowning” at each other, and then, the lollipops? ROLLING, they are…

    “He’s a loser highschool kid trapped in the pasty body of a man. He’s all bark and no bite. He’s pretty much a pitiful joke now.”

    A-FREAKIN’-MEN! his shtick is SO old…”look at how angst-ridden and shocking I am! LOOK AT ME!!!!”

  13. beyondtarts says:

    They definitely got engaged. There were pictures of her ring.

    They’ll be on-off for the rest of their lives. Or until he kills her or something.

  14. citysuede says:

    wow, look at the cr@ppy handbag that chick with the lollipop is carrying….

  15. LindyLou says:

    Wasn’t MM all suicidal after they broke up last time? At least he was talking stupid in that way…can’t remember for sure. I just hope we don’t have to listen to his moaning again.

  16. Emi says:

    now she needs to tackle that bitch kate bosworth and get alex ASAP!

  17. beyondtarts says:

    @Amy, at the most they had a brief fling. She weaseled her way on the show to get to him and it worked. For a bit.

  18. Jeri says:

    Good. Now Evan can get with Alex again.

  19. tar says:

    Good. Because he is grody-toady and in dire need of a bath.

  20. aenflex says:

    Jesus is he getting even uglier? Was that possible? I don’t even hate MM or anything, I think for a while there he really stood for something, albeit something fucked up. (hope my swears arent an issue)
    But dang he looks FUG here with his new lady friend, and extra fug standing beside Evan Rachel. I think she dated him to piss her daddy off??

  21. coup de grazia says:

    oh she looks healthy (??). physically as well as emotionally. and they don’t look wasted at all.

  22. coup de grazia says:

    don’t lollipops have something to do with some sort of drugs or something?

    (yeah, i’m really hardcore – ??)

  23. Darlene says:

    @Electric – LOL, that was my first thought too!! They are FLYING, they’re so high.

    Blow-pops, too? Nice. They’re having fun. Too bad they look such right sweaty messes.

  24. Dingles says:

    Eeeww.

  25. gg says:

    LindyLou – Booberry was actually homicidal, not suicidal. Kept making several references in a print article (forget where, but it was a major publication) to wanting to “bash my ex girlfriend’s head in”. Evan should probably keep the LAPD’s number handy at all times.

    They don’t look high to me, they look irritated. If those are drug suckers they’re eating, they should get their money back. I love Twiggy’s strappy shoes though – those are hot!

  26. Confuzzle says:

    Once a dweeb, always a dweeb, Brian. Find someone your own age you chickenhawk.

  27. Praise St. Angie! says:

    Booberry! awesome!

    gg, I remember that quote. he also made a video after the break up where he bludgeoned a ERW look-alike. no issues there, huh?

  28. Camille says:

    I hope like hell that she doesn’t go back to him. She can do far, far better.

  29. Jillian says:

    I don’t know what all these women see in him! He must be a really good fuck…either that or they all have very unique fetishes.

    I like his music though. It’s funny.

  30. gg says:

    lol @ Praise St. Angie! 😆

    I wasn’t scared of him until I read that article. He also said something about “creating art” by throwing used condoms at a mirror. barf!

  31. BeeCee says:

    Maybe she read my comment on the link post of her Gucci ad!

    Good girl!

  32. Kiska says:

    How MM gets chicks is beyond me and even more so, good looking young chicks!
    What is the fascination? He hasn’t even done anything relevant lately.

    He must be hung like a horse. yeah. that’s gotta be it.

  33. BonnieBoo says:

    Love MM! Funny how everyone suddenly likes ERW! Hey if you can get young hot girls why settle for old dried up haggs!

  34. buenavissta says:

    @ Denise: holy water! You made me lol, thanks.

  35. lucy2 says:

    He’s pretty lame. And gross.
    I hope she gets it together. Don’t really like her, but she’s pretty and does have talent. Though I agree she probably has a lot of issues.

  36. artsymphony says:

    Just because someone looks like a freak doesn’t mean they ARE a freak. Have you ever heard the man in an extensive interview? He’s one of the most intelligent people alive, man. And he’s actually very down to earth. Maybe the problem is that he dated someone way too young for him. I’m sure she was probably not emotionally in the same place as him when there’s a 20 year age difference. I suggest listening to an extended interview with him. Listening to him speak is very different than looking at him. Don’t judge a book by it’s cover. This is why society is so gross.

  37. artsymphony says:

    Besides :

    If you’re a human being and you say that you haven’t made a violent reference to some ex’s, you’re lying.
